36 Cl.
Well I got to get out and shoot the ole smooth bore and I must say with the help from here and the web I was right on target first go. Loaded with 35G of FFG and the same amout of #4 shot in both barrels. Went back 10 yards and took aim (LOL) squeezed of the first barrel and found it was high, Adjusted and the second shot was on target. I used a 7/16 punch and made my over powder wads with cereal box, then for my cushion wad I used cotton ball, Loaded the #4 shot then used a milk box overshot wad. I was impressed to find the wads on the snow and checked em over for burns and such, all was good.
Cleaned the barrels and reloaded and hit the trees looking for a rabbit. Saw one but it was a runner so no shot....Cant wait to get back out again and try other variations of loads and shot. Hopefully next time Ill have a pic of a rabbit!
